A load of B:mad:llox they have let us have a few quid to pay some fcker to dig a hole outside your house and fit a meter so they can take even money from from our empty pockets.
What were you expecting, Merlin the magician to pull €€€ out of his sleeve?Quote:

If anything I think it was a bit generous - economy is not out of the woods yet and they've given away 1BN today.
Yeah think people are all of a sudden think they have money again because their house is worth more. I have noticed a massive difference in work the last 6 months.Quote:

It has to be dealt with at some stage by the idiots in Brussels
To be honest I think it was a bit of a stunt, typical political short sightedness, all they care about in re-election and not the country. I am aware of I.W and realise everyone is still at a net loss, but the country is screwed (another debate on how we got here, but we cant change that) imo we'd best have been best leaving it untouched from last year.
Havent got a chance to look into it in detail, how much was allocated for job creation etc?
What's the deal with restoring the "Christmas Bonus"? Am I the only one that thinks thats madness?!
Yeah way better than expected most on here will see a decent extra few quid a year from income tax reductions
How are people still moaning, water tax was coming either way this pays it for me
I see a 1% reduction in my high rate tax, a 1% reduction in my usc and an extra 1k at the low rate. Plus no petrol increase, motor tax increase or booze increase
Good day if you ask me
